December's actually a
pretty good month when you don't have finals and school to worry about and you
push yourself so hard and are so sleep deprived that break finally starts and
you go into a sleep/sickness coma. Yeah
definitely didn't miss that 🥰🥰
Guess who has the best luck ever?? Me obviously! We were driving on the freeway and a little, tiny, minuscule rock cracked our windshield and spread so we have to get it replaced. Bad things happen to good people, I guess. I'm blaming this all on that chain email I got in 2012 that I never forwarded to 50 people. Should've listened 😔
On Tuesday we got to volunteer at the Maryland Food Bank and I met some of the coolest people ever. Vanessa traveled all over Europe with her band and can bake enough food for an army. Estrella moved here from Peru and is one of the smartest people I've ever met. John goes to Newport super often to get slammed at the Wedge and surf some gnarly waves. From Baltimore we drove down to Potomac and had a short zone conference and came home with some Christmas packages.
On Christmas Eve, we had a mission zoom party and did some fun activities. Highlights were the 4 year old son of the mission president throwing a tantrum (reminded me of home 🥰) and getting called out for having an Elf on the Shelf.
On Christmas Day, Santa skimped out this year on presents for us, but it's okay because we understand it's been rough recently. But I finally got some juggling balls so I can stop ruining all our tangerines!! Also, I think I'm officially old because I got super stoked when the mission gifted us a crockpot.
Those are some of the Christmas highlights but this week we started a new thing: call-ins Bingo. So our district leader calls us 2 times a week to see how we are doing on goals and stuff so we started a Bingo sheet because it makes it more fun. I got Bingo 3 times. He still doesn't know. I'll update later.
Well, this year has flown by!!! Thank you 2020. You were hard, but priceless to me. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.
Love, Hermana Dangl
